Aliss Collisson, agent for Aliss Alaude Royden, will reach Wellington on February 28 to make arrangements for Aliss Royden’s tour.
Within twelve months many changes have occurred in the life of one of the Queen’s former maids of honour (says the “Queen”). As Aliss Ursula Lawley, Sir Arthur and Lady Dawley’s daughter, was constantly seen about with Her Alajesty, and when she married Colonel George Gibbs in July, both the King and Queen -went to her wedding at St. Alargaret’s, Westminster. Now the New Year honours make another big change in her life, for the peerage conferred on her husband will raise her to the rank of a peeress. It certainly is a well-deserved honour, for Colonel Gibbs put in an enormous amount of work as treasurer of the King’s household, and also in his Parliamentary capacity as Unionist Whip. Although she resigned her post in the Royal household on her marriage, Airs. Gibbs still retains the deep friendship of the Queen, and, indeed, of all the Royal family.
